Runic has released their TorchED editor, however they plan on releasing a much better one called GUTS which will also include Workshop integration. These things take time, so be patient. Because of this, the mods are pretty scarce, and there aren't really any that are "necessary". I hope this helps.

depends on what you want do u want respec potions, an increased stash size or something else. Me personally i just use the increased stash size mod this is the one i use http://forums.runicgames.com/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=45884. Most the mods I tend to like are non game breaking like healh and mana pots from white to different colors entirely. Just look around I'm sure youll find something though i do suggest you do a few playthroughs w/o using stash mods and what not its a loot based game why ruin the fun of finding u know loot =)

what about cheaters? because dark souls is full with people that uses trainers to max their characters or even be invincible, because there is no cheat protection in the online servers. Have you people encountered this kind of players?

This game has 0 competativeness to it. No one will be cheating to gain an advantage in what is primarly a PvE game. People cheat in Darksouls so they can grief, you can't grief in this game... ergo no cheats.

And, in the exceedingly rare case you run into someone who has cheated themselves. You can leave their game or kick them from yours. It is a non-issue in this game.

I use Synergies but i also finished Vanilla on all 4 classes first 200+ hours. afterwards this Mod made a huge difference and is pretty damn great. added Necro class huge stash new dungeons and its more difficult.. new enchanters, crafting etc.

you defo want a bagmod and maby the diablo font mod and the lurkethud or whats it called that looks pretty awsome (the bag mod just nullifies the mules and lurker hud looks awsome ^^ and well the diablo font because its jjust that the diablo font ^^
